In 2011 and 2012, two separate series of 1:43 scale models of cars featured in Top Gear would be released by Minichamps of Germany and Oxford Diecast of the United Kingdom.

Minichamps series[]

The first of these series, the Top Gear Collection, was released in May 2011 as part of Minichamps' 2011 catalog, and was comprised of 10 cars which had done laps around the Top Gear test track. At the end of the year, 3 additional cars were added to the lineup in the wake of Series 17.

Oxford Diecast series[]

The second unnamed series released by Oxford Diecast a year later was much smaller, and would have been geared towards cars featured in the series' many challenges. However, only two challenges would be represented in the end; the second Amphibious Car Challenge, which was released first, and the destruction of a Toyota Hilux which joined it later, all four cars codenamed from TG01 to TG04 respectively.
